lopburi3 Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 WeightOne baht Thai gold is equivalent to 15,244 grams before it is worked up. After the work the weight should be equal with or more than 15,16 grams, to still be termed as one baht gold. (To simplify it, one baht of gold normally is termed as 15,2 grams) One or two 'satang' would be small indeed (100 satang to a baht). 50 satang is small, with 25 satang being the smallest I know of being sold by goldshops.

A ring can be 1 or 2 salang, bracelets are usually counted in baht weight. Thai gold is not count in carrots, 96.5% is considered jing. 4 salung = 1 baht 1 baht = 15.16 GRAMS http://www.thaibahtgold.com/ Edited July 25, 2009 by Garry9999 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
